It is essential that Christians pray for the will of God to be done (Matthew 6:10). Anyone who prays that God’s will should be done in his life cares for himself. If you love yourself, pray that the will of God be done in your life. I have come to believe that God’s will is better than my will or anybody else’s will.

God knows the future and what He has in store for you. Jesus prayed for three hours in the garden of Gethsemane that the will of God be done. After you have prayed this prayer you can relax and allow events to unfold. When Judas and the Pharisees came to arrest Christ, He did not resist them. He believed and accepted what was happening to be the will of God, and indeed, it was. This was leading Him to His greatest victory over Satan.
In 1985, during the first term of my third year as a medical student, I spent many hours and several weeks praying that the will of God be done in my life. I believe that today I am walking in God’s answers to those prayers. The very fact that Jesus taught us to pray about it means that it is not automatic that the will of God will happen.
If you want to have peace and confidence in this life, spend time praying that the will of God comes to pass in your life. I see your future unfolding in a positive way! I see God lifting you up as you pray about His will! I see you marrying the right person as you spend time praying for the will of God to be done!
